About this map

Great Salt Lake dominates the northern horizon of this orthophotomap, showing the shoreline as it stood in November 1966 at an elevation of 4193 feet. The landscape transitions from the open water into expansive Mud Flat zones, illustrating the stark, saline environment of the eastern Lakeside Valley. This 1960s-era survey is particularly distinctive for its use of an orthophotomosaic, which provides a photographic layer underneath the traditional topographic contours, revealing the subtle textures of the desert floor and salt crust.
